Brief Summary  

Resveratrol is a polyphenol that is abundant in grape skin and seeds. Food sources of resveratrol include wine, berries, and peanuts. This compound has many properties, including activity against glycation, oxidative stress, inflammation, neurodegeneration, several types of cancer, and aging. Because resveratrol  is generally well tolerated, it is believed to be a promising compound in preventing many diseases, such as diabetes and its complications. Unfortunately, this compound exhibits low bioavailability and solubility. 

Pterostilbene is a phenolic compound originally isolated from the heartwood of red sandalwood. Its presence in grape vines and blueberries was also reported later. Moreover, it was also produced in Pterocarpus marsupium, a tree whose wood is primarily used in the treatment of diabetes by the Ayurvedic physicians. Pterostilbene shares many chemical, physiological and pharmacological similarities with resveratrol, a dietary polyphenolic compound that has attracted extensive interests recently. Structurally, pterostilbene is a dimethylether analog of resveratrol. It is reported to have effects as cancer chemo-preventive anti-diabetic, and anti-ageing.

The aim of the study is to assess the bioavailability, safety, and efficacy of NOVAGENERE XAR and NOVAGENERE XAP in 6 healthy, adult, male human subjects.
